A Theory of Social Thermoregulation in Human Primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Beyond breathing, the regulation of body temperature—thermoregulation—is one of the most pressing concerns for many animals. A dysregulated body temperature has dire consequences for survival and development.

Involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and its interaction with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the ontogeny of avian thermoregulation: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The emergence of thermoregulation in avian species is a complex matter in which neural as well as hormonal processes are involved. In a previous paper, the neural aspects of primary avian thermoregulation were discussed.

Application of Monodisperse Encapsulated Phase Change Materials in Building Thermal Energy Storage

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Monodisperse encapsulated phase change materials (PCMs) are fabricated via microfluidic technology. To evaluate the thermoregulation ability of PCM capsules applied in building thermal energy storage, a gypsum model house with PCM capsules embedded is ...

Combined nutritional stress and a new systemic pesticide (flupyradifurone, Sivanto®) reduce bee survival, food consumption, flight success, and thermoregulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Flupyradifurone (FPF, Sivanto®) is a new butenolide insecticide that, like the neonicotinoids, is a systemic nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist.

Estrogenic modulation of female thermoregulatory behavior in a cold environment

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2016
Thermoregulation is categorized as either autonomic (i.e., sweating, shivering) or behavioral (i.e., wearing clothes, usage of air conditioner) thermoregulation. Compared to autonomic thermoregulation, the neural pathway of behavioral thermoregulation in

Role of the Preoptic Area in Sleep and Thermoregulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Sleep and body temperature are tightly interconnected in mammals: warming up our body helps to fall asleep and the body temperature in turn drops while falling asleep.

Seasonal temperature acclimatization in a semi-fossorial mammal and the role of burrows as thermal refuges. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Small mammals in habitats with strong seasonal variation in the thermal environment often exhibit physiological and behavioral adaptations for coping with thermal extremes and reducing thermoregulatory costs.

Orientation to the sun by animals and its interaction with crypsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
1. Orientation with respect to the sun has been observed in a wide range of species and hasgenerally been interpreted in terms of thermoregulation and/or ultraviolet (UV) protection. For countershaded animals, orientation with respect to the sun may also

Interaction of hydric and thermal conditions drive geographic variation in thermoregulation in a widespread lizard

open access: yesEcological Monographs, 2021
Behavioral thermoregulation is an efficient mechanism to buffer the physiological effects of climate change. Thermal ecology studies have traditionally tested how thermal constraints shape thermoregulatory behaviors without accounting for the potential ...
